I have sentimental feelings for a couple of languages.
C feels "like home" in that it was the first language I really started making actual things in. Even though I'd have to look up practically everything if I tried to write something nowadays.
But honestly, it's going to be Tandy Color BASIC which is the first thing I wrote anything in after my ZX81 days.
It was a weirdly nice and friendly interface, and I sometimes read old computer listings for the nostalgias. Feels like visiting my childhood.
Zx81😱😗 you like a founding father ? Awesome stuff!
Hopefully everyone gets a chance at being old :)
yes. I'm honoured. I will be blessed to get as much wisdom out of you as I possibly can.
I think 🤔 my first crush was Javascript😘. And now, we are married to each other💏.
So, I feel more than at home with it even though it gives me a tough time😥.
Apart from that, I feel at home with JavaScript. 🙂
Happy Coding🤓
I've started from C++ many years ago, worked with Java but now it's definitely Python and maybe a bit of Go in some cases
Ruby clicked for me, and I'm still going strong.
I started my career with PHP. And every time i work with it , it feels like home
Rust
F#. For me, the question is "Why not F#?", rather than "What language should I use?"
Of course, there might be times where F# isn't the most suitable/right language, but it's certainly my default choice.
JavaScript feels so much like home for me.
My very first true love was Python <3
It’s JS for me. It's the one language I don’t know much of but one I know a lot more than most of. And I can get it going and get things done with and I guess it’s the language I use as a comparison as I am now learning python php and other frame works which are like new languages to me. That’s how it’s like a home language.
As a matter of fact if I had a choice I wouldn’t learn all these other languages. But industrial circumstances I guess insist that I do.
But I love JS.
